| Summary: | This article deals with the relationship between truth and justice. First it is shown that truth occurs every time that the cognition of an object and the object itself correspond to each other. Such correspondence is enabled by the creative source of all that exists. In the Christian perspective, everything is founded in the love of the creator who is the truth per se. Since everything, including non-human beings, is founded in God's love, everything must be equally beloved. Equality, in turn, is a pivotal factor for the understanding of justice. If justice is sought for without injustice, the goal should be the broadest equality in the world. And so it is necessary that the number of subjects of justice, as they are mentioned in most theories, be reconsidered. The Christian recognition that everything is operated by the power of God leads to an understanding of justice which does not exclude creatures. |
